Ali Baba and the Forty Thieves (2009)

About the show

Our 34^th original show was also our second co-production with the Tobacco Factory Theatres.

Once long ago, there lived two brothers. For the good hearted Ali Baba, a poverty stricken wood cutter, life is all toil and hardship.  But for the proud Kasim Baba, who is married to a wealthy merchant's daughter, life is easy. Then, quite by accident, Ali discovers a secret, and from then on, life for the two brothers will never be the same again.

A terrific family night out that will have everyone leaving the theatre with a skip in their step The Guardian ****
